Detroit Tigers OF Robbie Grossman holds MLB record, but 'I don't want to talk about it'

After Game 1 of Tuesday's doubleheader, Detroit Tigers outfielder Robbie Grossman officially completed 401 consecutive games without an error, the longest streak by a position player in MLB history.

Grossman passed outfielder Nick Markakis, who played 15 seasons for the Baltimore Orioles (2006-14) and Atlanta Braves (2015-20). Markakis's streak covered 400 games from 2012-15.

"I know it's been going on for a pretty good time," Grossman said. "I just don't think about. I try not to say anything about it. But I guess it's pretty cool. I'll just continue to do what I do and be who I am and see what happens.
